About Holzwerke Ladenburger
The Holzwerke Ladenburger are a family-owned timber industry company founded in 1938, headquartered in Bopfingen-Aufhausen with five production sites in Baden-Württemberg and Saxony. The company processes spruce, fir and silver fir from round timber purchasing through sawing, technical drying and planing to in-house surface finishing such as slurry coating, waxing, oiling and coating. The product portfolio includes structural timber construction (LSH, BSH, KVH), concrete formwork, profiled timber and facade products, ceiling elements, wood-based material processing as well as premium wood pellets from own production. With a total production capacity of over 800,000 m³ per year and more than 800 employees, Ladenburger supplies primarily the German market as well as neighbouring European countries. The sawmills are PEFC-certified, and the company holds the energy and environmental management certificate ISO 50001. Own trucks and a distributed production site structure enable flexible, on-time deliveries for construction, trade, crafts and industry.
